Synopsis

Northern Irish Nollaig begins her Geo-astrophysics internship studies, in the unfamiliar city of Geneva. Its alien nature is compounded by the dominant characters of her host family David and Helen Wilcox, members of the diverse expat community, where the required external presentation of wealth and power is essential - a cloak to their hollow forms.
Nollaig is without self; her observational neutrality disarms, pushing those around her, to only crave more from her. Nollaig anchors her own sense of purpose by blood ties - her Uncle Nigel. His criminal past as a jewel thief, activates Nollaig’s first direction to become a skilled diamond thief herself.
In her exploration of unversed theft-ingesting and passing practices, Nollaig experiences a far more visceral and violent shift of value. Bodily destruction, radical weather events, cracks beginning to form. As Nollaig starts to become stronger, she is no longer a vessel but now an opponent - speaking to the vulnerability of the world and human presence around her. A violence of humanity in its purity. From a violent act, a benign outcome is born and Nollaig transforms everyone in her orbit.

When Arlo arrives to find Marcus has cooked someone else’s favourite meal, a single question begins to unravel an evening that refuses to stay in the present. Through a fractured timeline set entirely within one dining room, we move between Marcus and Arlo and the relationship that came before, with Una, the woman he met at a late-night bus stop and once talked about marrying. The same table, the same chairs, the same arguments about trust, honesty and what it means to truly see someone. As the timelines bleed together, it becomes clear that Marcus has never fully left the past, and that Una’s ghost sits at every table he sets. When Arlo asks what her own favourite meal is and he cannot answer, the film’s quiet devastation lands completely. CLOCKS is a portrait of a man who loves generously but sees poorly, and the women who carry the cost. It asks what we owe the person in front of us while we are still in love with someone we lost, and whether a feeling ever truly ends.
